I like the arrangement a lot -- unfortunately the overall quality of the shot seems to be lacking a bit. I'm not sure if you used a flash here, but it seems like the overall image has a bit too much contrast and is a bit blown out in spots. The idea of using the red/white background is great, though.

I may have tried getting nice & close to the main dish, rather than attempt the entire setting. Actually, I think I would have enjoyed seeing the dish a lot closer -- it's probably something I would enjoy eating! I also would have tried to avoid using the flash (at least it appears that a flash was used here). The flash brings out bright spots in the fork, the top & bottom of the dish, the spoon, etc. Try using a tripod with a long exposure -- the results provide for much better lighting.

This one might have been more compelling without the effect, although I'm sure you'll get an equal number of people who say "love the effect!" :)

It's a bit small to make a good judgement, but it seems like the lighting could have been a little better for this one. Sometimes it takes multiple light sources placed just right to balance the lighting evenly.

Very nicely arranged! You did a great job of selecting appropriately-colored items to surround the main dish.

A wonderful presentation! I was hoping to see a lot of shots in this challenge that look like they could appear in a cookbook, and this is one of the few that really does meet that expectation.

I'm afraid there's not a whole lot of "wow" here -- it just seems like there wasn't a lot of thought put into it in all honesty. The banner and wires are distracting, and the exposure is a bit too "contrasty," particuarly in the white of the clouds. I'd also try to submit shots a bit closer to the maximum size allowed -- this is just a bit too small to judge well. Just being honest...

I'm afraid I find the reflection and soft focus a little distracting...

Looks like a postcard! I love the rich colors -- the deep blue of the sky (thanks to a polarizing filter, I'm guessing) are a great contrast for the white of the church.
